Is Burzynski's solution to extract certain genes from the urine of healthy people?

My line of thinking is similar to yours. I made several posts in the duplicate thread about the same topic.
"Antineoplaston is actually a treatment not a cure. A highly successful cancer treatment compared to other available cancer treatments. Dr. Burzynski' documentation shows it to have an average 25% success rate (compared to an average 9% success rate of chemo and radiation with serious side effects). This means that there are more who do not respond to this treatment than those who do. This does not ignore the fact it's success results are still much higher than traditional radiation based cancer treatments."
"Antineoplaston is a non-toxic alternative that has shown great results in treating terminal cancers and brain tumors. The people receiving this treatment are typically already diagnosed as terminal."
The word "cure' is too strong. The reality is that innovations in health care are being tied up in red tape and bureaucracy, and as long as that is happening there will never be a true "cure" for anything.

I read about this on Mercola.com and it DOES sound worlds better than standard FDA approved treatments. But, I'm not sure I would classify it as THE cure for cancer.
From Mercola:
The film features several remarkable case stories of people who were successfully cured of cancer, but it's when the clinical trial data of conventional therapies versus antineoplastons are stacked against each other that the benefits of antineoplastons become really obvious:
Radiation or Chemotherapy Only
5 of 54 patients (9 percent)
were cancer free at the end of treatment
Toxic side effects
Antineoplastons Only
5 of 20 (25 percent)
were cancer free at the end of treatment
No toxic side effects
First, it looks to be a smaller sample size. Second, only 5 of the 20 were cured. 15 still had cancer, although I believe they were better off, just not "cured"
Here is one more for a trial with lethal childhood brainstem gliomas
Chemotherapy Only
1 of 107 patients (0.9 percent)
were cancer free at end of treatment
0 of 107 patients (0 percent)
survived past five years
Antineoplastons Only
11 of 40 patients (27.5 percent)
were cancer free at end of treatment
11 of 40 patients (27.5 percent)
survived past five years
FDA approved treatment: almost pointless. AntiNeoplastons: promising, but still up to 75% it did not work for.
So, promising, but I still think there's work to be done to really figure out THE cure for cancer. But, I haven't been able to watch the film yet. If there is something I'm missing, let me know.
I personally feel the bulk of the "cure" for cancer will end up having a large contribution from prevention - i.e. diet, sunshine, exercise, stress management, etc.

This video needs to go viral to show the people of the world who the real traitors of humanity are.
The clinical efficacy of antineoplastons combinations for various diseases have been the subject of many such trials by Burzynski and his associates, but these have not produced any clear evidence of efficacy. Oncologists have described these studies as flawed, with one doctor stating that they are "scientific nonsense".[5] In particular, independent scientists have been unable to reproduce the positive results reported in Burzynski's studies.
You two individuals have missed the entire post.
You state that only 25% of Dr. Burzynski's patients had been successfully treated, but what you fail to realize is that the FDA would ONLY allow him to treat patients WHO ALREADY had had radiation treatment and it didn't work, only few exceptions were made when it was extreme. So you missed the fact that he, Dr. Burzynski, was treating patients who already were at a deficit because of the radiation treatment.
Those who went to him FIRST fully recovered and were cancer free.
See this is the type of misinformation or not understanding WHAT is going on that leads to further disinformation. ALL of Dr. Burzynskis patients who were treated just by HIM were successful
Understand biology and don't make claims that you do not fully comprehend. Watch the documentary again and LISTEN to what is being said and HOW it is being said.
I just watched the whole video but Im a little confused
Is antineoplastic treatment now available to all cancer patients? What is the problem? Are they demanding the usage of chemo first? Or is the problem still that the doctors are purposely giving out improper doses to discredit the treatment?
